Technical Support
Frequently asked questions
1) Q: Can I use touch-enabled technology for my Digital Picture Frame?
A: The LCD screen does not support touch-enabled technology. Please use
the buttons or remote control to control the Digital Picture Frame.
2) Q: If I keep showing the same photo for a long time, will it damage the LCD
screen?
A: No. The Digital Picture Frame can display the same photo continuously for
a long time. But it is recommended not to show the same picture continuously
for more than 1 month.
3) Q: How do I store music files?
A: First, use a personal computer and popular audio editing software to
convert your music to MP3 format. The Digital Picture Frame will only play
MP3 files so all Windows Media Player™ and/or iTunes™ files will have to be
converted first. You can use a card reader or your digital camera to transfer
those files to your memory card.
4) Q: Does the Digital Picture Frame have built-in memory?
A: Yes.
5) Q: What is the maximum picture size?
A: The Digital Picture Frame is able to display pictures up to 12 Mega Pixels.
6) Q: What is the best picture resolution displayed on the screen?
A: The frame’s best resolution is 1024x768.
7) Q: How come the Digital Picture Frame does not show some of my photos?
A: The Digital Picture Frame is designed to show photos following the same
camera industry standards format as digital cameras. This format is a JPEG
format. Images, such as web images, scanned images, or photos in RAW
format, are not stored according to camera industry standards and therefore
cannot be displayed correctly on the Digital Picture Frame. Please use your
PC applications to convert such images into standard JPEG format before
viewing them on the Digital Picture Frame.

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock; do not expose this
appliance to rain or moisture.
Do not block the ventilation holes on the back of the Digital Picture

Treat the screen gently. The screen on the Digital Picture Frame
is made of glass and can be scratched or broken.
If fingerprints or dust make the LCD screen dirty, we recommend
using a soft, non-abrasive cloth such as a camera lens cloth to
clean the LCD screen.
If you use an LCD Cleaning Kit sold on the market, apply the
cleaning liquid to the cloth. Do not apply the liquid directly to your
LCD screen.
